UCS protein Rng3p activates actin filament gliding by fission yeast myosin-II.

The Journal of cell biology - 25 Oct 2004

Lord Matthew, Pollard Thomas D

Abstract excerpt

We purified native Myo2p/Cdc4p/Rlc1p (Myo2), the myosin-II motor required for cytokinesis by Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The Myo2p heavy chain associates with two light chains, Cdc4p and Rlc1p. Although crude Myo2 supported gliding motility of actin filaments in vitro, purified Myo2 lacked this activity in spite of retaining full Ca-ATPase activity and partial actin-activated Mg-ATPase activity....
